“It’s got a hard drive to it. It’s Scotch bagpipes and old-time fiddling.... It’s blues and jazz, and it has a high lonesome sound. It’s plain music that tells a story. It’s played from my heart to your heart, and it will touch you.” -Bill Monroe
The Mt. Pleasant String Band is a five piece bluegrass/old-time band with a raw, high energy sound all there own. Drawing their influences from a wide range of roots music, Mt. Pleasant aims to educate there listeners on the other side of bluegrass, the old songs that many people have forgotten or never heard. They have a way of putting there stamp on the old tunes, often times arranging them in a unique way, or reviving the old-time versions. They also intend to leave there mark with there solid originals, based on rambling, heartache, hard times, hard living, and hard work. You can catch the boys pickin' all over the tri-state area nearly every week. Monthly shows include: Southgate House in Newport KY every 3rd Thursday and the Crows Nest in west side Cincinnati OH every 4th Saturday.

Hey Guys, GREAT SHOW you put on the 4th. You guys rocked the house. I think some of the other bands that went on after you guys had a hard time to follow. Calb was really rock'n on that bandjo I think he did a great job filling in for you guys. I also really liked how you guys added a dobro player nice touch man. Hey if you guys need a T-shirt or Album design, I work part time for a screen printing place in Greensburg just give me call or e-mail me. Well keep Rock'n and hope you guys will make it to Nashville someday. PEACE jason
